The Times Says Dynamite Will be Used
at the Big Jubilee.
LONDON, June 1.-The last of the
Times second series of articles on "Par-
nellism and Crime" which appears this
morning, concludes with the statement
that the New York council of the Feni-
an Brotherhood has issued circular ap-
pealing for funds for "pyrotechnic dis
play in honor of the Queens jubilee,
and requesting that all moneys sub
scribed for the purpose should be adj
dressed to John Murphy, treasurer, post
office box 22S2. The article continues:
"In other words a series of dynamite
and other outrages is intended. Whether
the schemes succeed, the near future
will disclose. What knowledge the Par
nellites possess of the character and
projects of the men who hold such close
relations with them we shall not here
discuss. We will only add that while the
success of the inquiry we have made has
surpassed our original expectations, Mr..
Parnell has but to raise finger to OBJ
tain fuller information upon every point
than our partial and limited opportuni-
ties have rendered possible.

Iron HEN DESP0NDENT.
Failure of the Attempt to Settle the Con
nellsviIIe Coke Strike.

Failure of the Attempt to Settle the Con-
nellsviIle Coke Strike.
i PITTsBURG, Pa, June 2.-Al hope OF
an early settlement of the coke strike
has disappeared. A conference of OPP
orators and strikers was held to-day,
but after a session of several hours the
meeting adjourned without arriving at
any agreement. Both sides were irm.
The operators took decided stand for
arbitration, while the men insisted up
on the 123 per cent. advance. The sup
ply fcoke is running low, and unless q
settlement Of the difficulty is effected
within a very short time, the result will
be disastrous to the iron and steel
industries of the United States.
Nearly all the coke used in
the manufacture of iron and
steel in the country comes from the Con-
nellsville district, and the result of the
sudden cutting off of the supply can
readily be seen. There are fully 500,-
600 men employed in the United States
in the iron and steel industry, and every
man will be out Of work if the trouble is
not soon settled.

SPYING ON THE IRISH,
English Detectives Investigating Fenia1
ism in the States.

English Detectives Investigating Fenian-
ism in the States.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, June 3.-A discovery
has been made here that makes it GER
tain that English government detectives
have been here and investigated the
Irish National League work. A letter
has been found addressed to Sir Charles
Nelson and signed James Bradie. 1t be-
gins by saying: 81 send you bud
get of letters, reports, ETC., which
will show you how affairs are going"
Then the letters tells where eleven Of
the twelve Englishmen are working
four in St. Louis, three in Kansas City,
and four in Leadville and Denver. The
writer is sure some sort of demonstra-
ton is to be made June 81, and asks that
strict watch be kept on 2S Grove Street,
Oxford Road. Another letter dated New
York, May 3, and signed James Tolling,
says the whole strength of the Fenian
Brotherhood in the United States is
5000, and they have a revenue of 81, 900
a month; that O'Donoyan Rossa's expul-
sion was only pretense, and he is still
a member. Much more of what pur-
ports to be facts concerning the Fenian
Brotherhood are given.

Curious Marri age Customs.
From All the Year Round.

From All the Year Round.
The associations c)nnecte d with the
marriage rites among the Kirghese Of
the Northern steppes of Turkestan
are most formidable, involving the
payment OF ''kalim, resides the CIV
ing of various presents. The first por-
ton is paid by the match maker when
negotiations are entered into, but the
second not for twelve months, unless
the bridegroom be wealthy. Should
the bride-elect die during this period,
her parents must return all they have
received, Or give their next daughter
as a substitute, together with fine of
one or two horses and robes or furs.
This same law applies in the event OF
the girl jilting her sutton. On the
other hand should the man die, his
parents must either pay a fine and
forfeit the "kalim," or. take the girl
for their next son. AT the expiration
of the term Of betrothal the bride
groom attired in his best, goes with
his friends to the SAUL" or village OF
the bride where tent has been pre-
pared for his reception. Throughout
the ceremonies of betrothal, the brides
brother has the right OF pllferlng from
the bridegroom whatever he pleases,
but at the wedding the brides rela-
tives near and distant, come and take
as presents almost everything he has.
His hat, coat. girdle, horse, saddle,
and all that he has are pilfered. each
one taking an article, remarking that
it is for the education of the bride.
There is. however. some reciprocity in
the matter. for when the relatives of
the bride visit the "auP' OF the bride
groom, they are feeced in exactly the
same manner. On the payment of the
'kalim" the parents Of the bride are
bound to give up their daughter, giving
rer as dowry q "kibitka, or tent, q
camel Or riding horse, and a number
of cattle, according to their position
in life, also O. brides headdress called
"saoukele," or if poor another called
q "jaoulonk, besides q bed, crockery,
and trunk OF wearing apparel.

A TENNESSEE FASTER.

Capt. Murchison Lives Seventy eight
Days Without Food.
JACKSON, Tenn, June This is the
seventy eighth day since Capt. VIM.
Murchison, of Mendon, has taken any
drink or nourishment of any kind. He
still retains his mental faculties per-
fectly, and will not allow physicians to
prescribe for him, as he knows they can
not relieve him, and he prefers not to be
tantalized with efforts to restore him.
The attack came on at night. He had
eaten supper and retired as usual when
about IL O'Clock, he awakened quite
thirsty, took drink of water, and went
to sleep again, and in few hours he
awakened again thirsty, and in attempt
ing to take drink of water, found his
throat was paralyzed and that he could
not swallow, since which time he has
not been able to swallow anything.
He had suffered partial stroke of pa
ralysis previous to this time. Capt
Murchison is about So years of age. He
is no crank as has been supposed, but
his fast is the result of disease, and the
several physicians Of this city who have
visited him all regard his case with deep
interest as one Of the most extraordinary
on record. He was formerly in business
in this city, and has no family. At this
time he is very feeble and cannot live
much longer,

SHOT BY FEDERAL TROOPS.
A Deserter and Murderer Meets his Death
at San Antonio,

Deserter and Murderer Meets his Death
at San Antonio.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, June 2.-Samuel
G. Reed was killed near here to-day by
file of United States soldiers. Reed
was not over SO years of age, well built,
well educated, physically powerful and
a scion of one of the best families in
Alabama. He enlisted as private
soldier in the United States army, and
was subsequently stationed at Fort
Brown, near the mouth of
the Rio Grande. Accompanied by
comrade named Williams he
deserted and crossed to Matamoras,
where he killed and robbed q rich jew
eler named Block. He and his com
panion were arrested and condemned
California and Arizona, killed q couple
of men there, and finally drifted back to
San Antonio, where he was arrested on
a charge of desertion and turned over to
the military. This nation, fol- some rea-
son, wished to keep him, and the au-
thorities of Matamoras, where he is
under sentence of death for Block S
murder, wished to get hold of him
so they could shoot him. The
United States held him, however, and
yesterday Reed, under heavy guard, left
his prison for the hall where the mill
tary court sat. On the way he made a
desperate effort to escape. He paid no
attention to the command to halt and
was fired upon. A bullet entered his
right side and he bounded into the air
and fell MORALLY wounded. In death
bed confession, Reed admitted his iden-
titv with that of the murderer of Black,
which he had, up to this time, strenu-
Ously denied.

I recently chatted with a bright

was able to save quite q nugget each

after g. few months gave it up alto.

of saving anything, it is all he can dc
to support his family in a very modest
way. These are his own words:

The work is easy and the hours are
nine to four only, with a half-hour for
lunch; but it is q treacherous routine,
and insidiously works upon a mans

up and he becomes no better than a
machine. The Government clerkship
accomplishes the destruction OF ones

NEW YORR BUYS RAMS.

The Chamber of Commerce Takes Steps
to Fortify the Harbor.
NEW YORK, June AT the meeting
of the New York chamber of commerce,
this afternoon, the defenseless condition
of New York harbor was considered. 1t
was suggested that, in event the govern
ment did nothing, the city should pro-
coed to defend itself.
The purchase of eight or ten rams for
the defense of the harbor was recon-
mended TWAS decided to consider the
subject at the next regular meeting.
A resolution was adopted endorsing
the action of Secretary Whitney in pro-
viding for naval reserve of merchant
